Baked Chocolate Frosted Doughnuts

Baked Chocolate Frosted Doughnuts

My kids love baking with me! They were eager & excited to help make these delicious doughnuts! You can always tell when the kids help me bake by the overload of sprinkles ☺. We made them vegan, but as always, you can substitute for non-vegan ingredients & they would be just as yummy! This recipe makes 6 doughnuts!

We hope you’ll give these a try!

Ingredients

1 c. all-purpose flour

½ tsp. baking soda

¼ tsp. sea salt

¼ c. Soy-free Earth Balance Vegan Butter, melted

½ c. So Delicious Plain Greek Yogurt

½ c. light brown sugar

1 T. Bob’s Red Mill Egg Replacer + 2 T. water

(follow directions for replacing one whole egg)

1 tsp. pure vanilla extract

Garnish of your choice! (sprinkles, coconut, crushed nuts, etc)

For Icing:

½ c. powdered sugar

2 T. cacao powder

1-2 T. almond milk

To Make

Preheat oven to 350º and grease a doughnut pan to avoid sticking

In a large bowl, whisk together dry ingredients

In a small bowl, mix together wet ingredients & gently fold into bowl of dry ingredients until just combined (do not over-mix the batter)

Carefully transfer batter into prepared pan, making sure not to overfill (we used a cookie scoop and an offset icing spatula for this step)

Bake for 15-17 minutes

Cool completely on a cooling rack

While doughnuts are cooling, prepare icing by combining powdered sugar & cacao powder then whisking in almond milk until your icing reaches the correct consistency. The icing should be thick and not runny

Once your doughnuts have cooled, dip each one straight down into the bowl of icing

Place iced doughnuts back on cooling rack and top with desired garnish
